Protest the Hero
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Awake, unfazed,
2
Morning light tells of the dawning day
3
Just like any day
4
Brush off sleep's touch,
5
Clear midnight's haze
6
There's nothing extraordinary here,
7
A flaccid world, unfit, unclear
8
Desperate for something more
9
Something more than getting by
10
Empty faces on the sidewalk,
11
Listless and limping to a lie,
12
Of a bright and pleasant future,
13
Of a blue and cloudless sky
14
A phantom whisper sounds deceiving
15
It brings with it the question "why?"
16
We work until we are unable,
17
Then locked away until we die
18
But then it happened
19
Everything changed in but an instant
20
A violent burst of brilliant colour,
21
somehow close and somehow distant
22
From a whisper,
23
to a scream,
24
to a hoarse, distorted laugh
25
There is no hope of restitution
26
There is no ever going back
27
In dreamless sleep,
28
one ponders death
29
Hold back the fleeting final breath
30
Knuckle white, slipping grip,
31
jaw clenched tight, and quivering lip
32
This cannot happen
33
This cannot be
34
Escape a life of anonymity
35
to be a drop into the sea,
36
whose ripple turns to tidal wave
37
that sweeps the shores it once forgave
38
But crashing down upon the shore,
39
the sea is silent evermore
40
Awake, unfazed,
41
morning light tells of the dawning day
42
just like any day.
43
Brush off sleep's touch,
44
clear midnight's haze
45
There's nothing extraordinary here,
46
a flaccid world, unfit, unclear
47
Desperate for something more,
48
something more than getting by
49
There's got to be something more than this
50
It sounds so deceiving
51
Begging the question "why?"
52
Begging the question "why?"
53
Why do we work until we are unable?
54
Why do we work until we die?
55
A drop into the sea
56
whose ripple turns to tidal wave,
57
and sweeps the shores it once forgave
58
The sun, the moon, the Earth,
59
conversed and agreed,
60
the people of the world must pay for its atrophy.
61
But crashing down upon the shore,
62
the sea is silenced evermore
63
But then it happened
64
everything changed in but an instance
65
A violent burst of brilliant colour,
66
somehow close and somehow distance
67
What unknown face now breaks the silence?
68
What tipping force disturbs the balance?
69
Swift and sober, comes a voice, offering a bitter choice
